Today was the garden again … most of the day.Â I weeded some but ran out of energy and strength part way through.Â But I stayed out and helped when I could and made decisions.Â I am actually very excited.Â I used to do a lot in the garden when I had more strength – and it is such an empowering feeling to be able to see things happen – even though it is mostly not me doing the work.Â Great feeling!Â By the way, do you need any Dutch Iris or Day Lilies?Â I have Lots and Lots!! (If you are local, I am serious). We sent out the press release for AWE to the first place today … would you like to have me post it in the next few day?Â By the way, I made another sale at CafePress today!! My shop is http://CafePresss.com/DianeClancy . Would it interest you?Â I’d love to hear how you are doing!!

Today was a day totally devoted to fixing up things around the house with the help of a friend who is excellent at fixing things.Â This was a set of projects going on the last three months!! Whew!! At the same time another friend was helping dig out the garden from the 9 foot weeds … I have never seen weeds like this before here!! It is the rain.Â But he helped (No – he did it!) dig up the part of the garden we are going to have a vegetable garden in next year. We got out the tree roots this time and we are going to divide my poor bearded irises that have desperately needed it for close to a decade!Â So a lot of progress off line … yes, apparently life still does exist off line!!Â I’d love to hear how you are doing!!

Susan has been great today in helping my catch up … I have taken on so much responsibility that I am overwhelmed way too much of the time.Â I used to be able to plow through things and accomplish lots – I think I am still pretty shaky in some ways from being pretty sick these last few years – I don’t have the same get up and go.Â Susan is being wonderful at helping me get and stay focused to get stuff done!Â I wish I felt more swoosh!!! but I need to accept where I am. I love this image – and I hope you do too!! Â I’d love to hear how you are doing!!

Today has been filled with working on the AWE Project (Artists Window Exhibit) … it is all a bit much … but the progress is great.Â In this fairly small town we have 26 different stores (or businesses) and 23 different artists who are participating. We have the press release mostly done – whew!! It is much better then the one sent out last time. I love this image – and I hope you do too!! Â I’d love to hear how you are doing!!

Just to let you know … today we had the third plumbing crisis in less than a month … it is fixed now but it was a pretty tough day trying to get it all figured out … and the I spent a couple of hours with the (fantastic) guy who did the work. Pretty scary stuff … then I remember Florida with 26″ of water and crocs swimming in the streets … and the (sewer) water spraying out in the basement and tubs and toilets not going down look much smaller.Â Thanks for coming by!!

Today I will be resting in the hospital with my Remicade. Time to let everything else go and heal … thank you for coming by and understanding!! Of course, once I get back there will be a lot of emails for the AWE project … but perhaps I will ignore them for a day. These remind me of the candy necklaces some of us had as children. Those elastic strings with little bits of candy strung on them. I’d love to hear how you are doing!!
